Krita 2.8.0 was released yesterday, and this version comes with quite a big list of changes. In addition to the new features that were implemented, Krita is also available for Windows with an installer available from here.

Krita is part of the Calligra suite, an office suite for the KDE desktop. It is a powerful image editor and manipulation tool, with support for filters, layers, a bunch of drawing tools with presets, and a bunch of other useful tools.
